Force X has a magnitude of 1260 ​pounds, and Force Y has a magnitude of 1530 pounds. They act on a single point at an angle of 4

5 degrees to each other. Find the magnitude of the equilibrant and the angle between the equilibrant and the 1260​-pound force.

Answer:

Fe= 2579.68 P

α= 24.8°

Explanation:

Look at the attached graphic

we take the forces acting on the x-y plane and applied at the origin of coordinates

FX = 1260 P , horizontal (-x)

FY = 1530  P , forming 45° with positive x axis

x-y components FY

FYx= - 1530*cos(45)° = - 1081.87 P

FYy= -  1530*sin(45)° = - 1081.87 P

Calculation of the components of net force (Fn)

Fnx= FX + FYx

Fnx= -1260 P -1081.87 P

Fnx= -2341.87 P

Fny=FYy

Fny= -1081.87 P

Calculation of the components of equilibrant force (Fe)

the x-y components of the  equilibrant force are equal in magnitude but in the opposite direction to the net force components:

Fnx= -2341.87 P, then, Fex= +2341.87 P

Fny=  -1081.87 P P, then, Fex= +1081.87 P

Magnitude of the equilibrant (Fe)

F_{n} = \sqrt{(F_{nx})^{2} +(F_{ny})^{2}  }

F_{e} =\sqrt{(2341.87)^{2}+(1081.87)^{2}  }

Fe= 2579.68 P

Calculation of the direction of  equilibrant force (α)

\alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{F_{ny} }{F_{nx} } )

\alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{1081.87 }{2341.87} )

α= 24.8°

Look at the attached graphic

A 500-g lump of clay is dropped onto a 1-kg cart moving at 60 cm/s. The clay is moving downward at 30 cm/s just before l dith t
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The speed of the cart and clay after the collision is 50 cm/s .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of lump , m = 500 g = 0.5 kg .

Velocity of lump , v = 30 cm/s .

Mass of cart , M = 1 kg .

Velocity of cart , V = 60 cm/s .

We know by conservation of momentum :

mv+MV=(m+M)v'

Here , v' is the speed of the cart and clay after the collision .

Putting all value in above equation .

We get :

0.5\times 30+1\times 60=(0.5+1)\times v'\\\\v'=\dfrac{15+60}{1.5}\\\\v'=50\ cm/s

Hence , this is the required solution .

A sewing machine uses 1.6kWh of electricity in one day. If electricity costs 9p per unit, what is the total cost in pence of usi
atroni [7]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf 1.6\ units = 14.4p}

Explanation:

Since,

<h3><u>1 kWh = 1 unit</u></h3>

So,

1.6 kWh = 1.6 units

If,

<h3>1 unit = 9p</h3>

1.6 units = 9p × 1.6

1.6 units = 14.4p

A small rock is thrown straight up with initial speed v0 from the edge of the roof of a building with height H. The rock travels
Crank

Answer:

v_{avg}=\dfrac{3gH+v_0^2}{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH} }

Explanation:

The average velocity is total displacement divided by time:

v_{avg} =\dfrac{D_{tot}}{t}

And in the case of vertical v_{avg}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{y_{tot}}{t}

where y_{tot} is the total vertical displacement of the rock.

The vertical displacement of the rock when it is thrown straight up from height H with initial velocity v_0 is given by:

y=H+v_0t-\dfrac{1}{2} gt^2

The time it takes for the rock to reach maximum height is when y'(t)=0, and it is

t=\frac{v_0}{g}

The vertical distance it would have traveled in that time is

y=H+v_0(\dfrac{v_0}{g} )-\dfrac{1}{2} g(\dfrac{v_0}{g} )^2

y_{max}=\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}

This is the maximum height the rock reaches, and after it has reached this height the rock the starts moving downwards and eventually reaches the ground. The distance it would have traveled then would be:

y_{down}=\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}+H

Therefore, the total displacement throughout the rock's journey is

y_{tot}=y_{max}+y_{down}

y_{tot} =\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}+\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}+H

\boxed{y_{tot} =\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{g}+H}

Now wee need to figure out the time of the journey.

We already know that the rock reaches the maximum height at

t=\dfrac{v_0}{g},

and it should take the rock the same amount of time to return to the roof, and it takes another t_0 to go from the roof of the building to the ground; therefore,

t_{tot}=2\dfrac{v_0}{g}+t_0

where t_0 is the time it takes the rock to go from the roof of the building to the ground, and it is given by

H=v_0t_0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_0^2

we solve for t_0 using the quadratic formula and take the positive value to get:

t_0=\dfrac{-v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH}  }{g}

Therefore the total time is

t_{tot}= 2\dfrac{v_0}{g}+\dfrac{-v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH}  }{g}

\boxed{t_{tot}= \dfrac{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH}  }{g}}

Now the average velocity is

v_{avg}=\dfrac{y_{tot}}{t}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{\frac{2gH+v_0^2}{g}+H }{\frac{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH} }{g} }

\boxed{v_{avg}=\dfrac{3gH+v_0^2}{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH} } }
